Minutes of the Shenandoah County Planning Commission Work Session with the Board of Supervisors Meeting: July 15, 2026 The Shenandoah County Planning Commission held a work session with Board of Supervisors invited concerning the County’s data center ordinance, public comments, and potential ordinance amendments. Chairman Tommy Miller opened the work session. Mr. Lemuel Hancock, Director of Community Development, stated that the County committed to holding two work sessions following adoption of the data center ordinance on June 23, 2026. He explained that the meeting would review comments received during the June 4 public hearing, the June 23 Board meeting, and a public survey conducted from July 2 through July 12. Mr. Hancock emphasized that no data center application or special use permit was pending and that the work session concerned only the adopted ordinance and possible improvements. No final ordinance amendment or project decision would be made. Ordinance Background and Public Input Mr. Hancock reviewed the County’s decision to define data centers separately from the former by- right “data processing” use and require a special use permit in the industrial districts. He stated that this approach ensures public hearings and technical review for any future proposal. Ms. Brenna Menefee explained that adopting local standards before further state action may preserve local discretion and prevent state default standards from filling regulatory gaps. She no …
